Pleasant Plains senior forward Elizabeth Schweitzer, who helped lead the Cardinals girls basketball team to a 23-8 record and Class 2A regional championship, plans to enroll at Millikin University and play for the NCAA Division III school in Decatur.

The 5-foot-10 Schweitzer averaged 7.1 points and a team-high 5.1 rebounds per game for Plains. She also shot 73 percent from the free-throw line. She was an All-Sangamo Conference third-team selection.
